( © Ryland Zweifel - Dreamstime.com) U.S. veterans are being denied certain GI Bill benefits for working cannabis industry jobs in states that have legalized marijuana. The U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) does not consider working in the cannabis industry to be "stable and reliable" employment, Roll Call reported last week. As a result, the department is denying home loans to veterans who work cannabis industry jobs."The idea that people who served this country are being denied home loans for finding employment in a rapidly growing ...

A hydrogen refueling station exploded in Norway on Monday and the company operating the station has suspended operation at its other locations following the explosion. Now, Toyota and Hyundai are both halting sales of fuel cell vehicles in the country. Does this spell the end of fuel cell hydrogen vehicles as a “zero-emission” alternative? The Uno-X hydrogen station in Sandvika in Bærum exploded on Monday and resulted in two injuries in a nearby non-fuel cell vehicle. According to the police, the explosion was strong enough that it activated the airbags in the vehicle without any impact. The cause of the explosion is currently unknown and the rest of the refueling network ...

Why Kids Still Need Analog Clocks

Last year, in an unscientific exercise, Jimmy Kimmel’s team showed some kids a traditional clock and asked if they could read the time on it. It did not go so well. >Yes, kids do still learn how to tell time in school, but we can guess that many of them are losing exposure to analog clocks outside of the classroom. Thinking about it now, the only clock that my six-year-old can see in our home is on the digital display of our microwave. It hasn’t even occurred to me to hang up another one—my husband and I always have our watches or phones on us. But time management specialists say that analog clocks can teach kids something that digital clocks can’t, and that is that ...

The Trump administration wants to get back to the moon—but Beijing's single-minded focus could outpace a NASA with competing priorities. Shortly after New Year’s Day, a boxy gold-toned spacecraft made a soft landing on a corner of the solar system never before visited from Earth: the moon’s far side, sometimes known as the “dark side.”The craft began sending images of previously unseen reddish craters, bouncing them off a satellite orbiting above. In the following days, it launched a robotic rover, set up a colony of silkworms and even experimented with growing plants like cotton and potatoes. NASA administrator Jim Bridenstine hailed the mission—intended ...

When it comes to do-it-yourself projects, a new study has shown that a quick comparison of baby boomer dads and millennial dads is not much of comparison. Millennial dads have “pathetic” DIY skills as opposed to baby boomer dads. According to new research, millennial dads are less capable than their own dads when it comes to everyday DIY fixes. Millennial dads prefer to rely on professional help instead. Millennial dads are less likely than their boomer counterparts to be able to change a car tire on the side of the road, unblock a toilet or sink, reset a tripped circuit breaker, or even open a stuck pickle jar with their hands. Not only does this lack of basic DIY skill mean ...
The Number One Reason Adults Are Interested In Legalized Cannabis
Post Date: 2019-06-12 09:22:37 by Deckard

Adults are more and more favoring the decriminalization of cannabis. And they don’t want the plant’s use legalized because they want to get high, rather most simply want a more natural way to combat pain or depression. A recent Nielsen survey delved into why Americans are interested in trying legal cannabis, and the results were astounding. Americans DON’T want to get high or experience the effects of the psychoactive THC compound found in cannabis. This could also be why CBD (cannabidiol) oil has been rapidly rising in popularity as well since there is not enough THC in CBD oil to have a mind-altering effect. In fact, those who said they’d consume the plant ...

Orono, MN — In case after case, the Free Thought Project has reported on countless incidents of police officers responding to welfare checks and killing or maiming the innocent recipients in the process. We’ve also reported on multiple incidents of the American police state targeting elderly people who are unable to mow their grass. However, what makes this case out of Orono, Minn. so unique is that this same scenario started just like the aforementioned ones, but thanks to officer Matt Siltala, it ended in the exact opposite manner—with kindness, instead of extortion and violence. Typically, when police officers carry out a welfare check, officer safety is paramount. Doors ...

“You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized.”—George Orwell, 1984 Tread cautiously: the fiction of George Orwell has become an operation manual for the omnipresent, modern-day surveillance state. It’s been 70 years since Orwell—dying, beset by fever and bloody coughing fits, and driven to warn against the rise of a society in which rampant abuse of power and mass manipulation are the norm—depicted the ominous rise of ubiquitous technology, fascism and totalitarianism in 1984. Who could have predicted that 70 years after ...

Noah's Flood occurred just thousands of years ago and wiped out all terrestrial life on earth, saving just thousands of animal "kinds" and 8 people on the Ark. Catastrophic rifting resulted in cycling tsunamis that brought water and sediment onto land and resulted in the movement of the continents to their position today.

Allen Park, MI — Police accountability activists received a rare victory this week when the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals denied a police officer qualified immunity for kidnapping a man and shoving his fingers into the man’s anus to look for non-existent drugs. For those who may be unfamiliar, qualified immunity is a legal doctrine in United States federal law that shields cops and other government officials from being sued for discretionary actions performed within their official capacity—unless their actions violated “clearly established” federal law or constitutional rights. Ramming your fingers into an otherwise entirely innocent man’s anus over a ...

Did you know that when you’re stopped for no reason at a drunk driving checkpoint – well, stopped for no reason having anything to do with something you did to suggest you might be “drunk” – your refusal to participate in self-incrimination can result in your arrest, loss of your government permission slip to travel as well as the impounding of your car? Your “cooperation” is not only appreciated – it is required. This not-much-discussed aspect of Checkpoint USA is arguably even worse than the existence of Checkpoint USA – which came into being in the ’80s, when the government decided to re-interpret the limits of its own authority ...

But he said he experienced nothing as crazy as what happened May 30, when he was driving near the 120th Precinct stationhouse and came across a Nissan Maxima wanted by the bank because of three missed payments. He said he logged the Maxima into his tracking system, lifted it onto his tow truck and was about to walk into the stationhouse to notify police when a green pickup pulled in front of him. “I was stopped by one officer over there, saying, ‘Hey, that’s a police officer’s car,’ with a police sergeant that was off-duty that I didn’t know — ...
